My report says the same thing and is dated the same. My car is being shipped to south jersey. When the car is actually shipped it will be assigned a railcar. What's posted on there now is not the railcar number.

How were you able to get pics at the factory? I am very amazed... I may be a little sheltered on this topic if this easy to do.

bad news. at railyard, but not on train. this sucks

That's what I said in post #2. I was surprised to see that you said yours was on a train, but I thought maybe it was different or something. I figured since you had pictures from the plant that maybe you had some inside info. Unfortunately our cars are there together. Mine was built on 10/18 and still sitting there. Our cars were picked up by the rail company on 11/9 but they have not put it on a train yet. Do any other members know if it is normal for a car to be sitting with the rail company for a week now?
